Students develop detailed concepts and models of authentic new products and services. Our focus is on user-oriented, collaborative approaches to design and seeking holistic solutions integrating user and functional perspectives. We emphasize the importance of process and the development of strategies. Students observe and engage people to develop a deep understanding of their values and the patterns of their lives. They work collaboratively in a studio environment to create a shared understanding of the people they design for (and with) and the product ideas they develop. Topics covered include design thinking, ethnographic methods, concept development and interaction design. This course, offered in partnership with Olin College, offers an intensive design and team work experience, focused on understanding customer needs. Restricted to Engineering and Industrial Design. There is a $95 facilities fee, but no books are required. Due to the special nature of this course, we recommend that all interested students contact iFoundry for further information on this unique pilot opportunity: 217-244-3824 or ifoundry@illinois.edu. Restriction(s): Restricted to Engineering.
